She did indeed have a 'duke' with her yesterday.
The 'Libra of Honesty' suddenly turned towards the angel.
The five judges nodded blankly.
But this further proves that their previous investigation was without any problems.
Ah... as expected, the Dark Church is always the final answer.
[This is infuriating! How am I supposed to write this case file?]
Should we focus on Michelle? Let's solidify the scandal involving him and his illegitimate daughter to divert everyone's attention...?
Li Aili: "..."
Hey! Look at the scales of honesty in your hand, they're almost tipped to the devil's side!
Clearly, the member of the inquisition had also noticed it. He immediately coughed lightly, and the evil bubble above his head burst with a 'pop,' leaving only a pure [Praise be to the God of Light~]
Li Aili: "..."
Rather than being judges of life and death by the Vatican, they are more like a group of miserable working people.
However, their boss is the God of Light.
The judge, sitting in the middle, waved his hand impatiently. "That's all for now, Madam. You may leave."
Li Aili stood up, lifted her skirt, and walked out.
"Wait," another judge called out to her.
Li Aili turned around. "Is there anything else?"
The judge sized up Li Aili, and for reasons unknown, asked, "Who do you think attacked the Saint Seir Sanctuary?"
Li Aili: "..."
She already had a guess in her mind; if she said she didn't know, Libra would most likely turn to the devil.
what to do?
Li Aili, quick-witted, sat back down in her chair, cleared her throat, and said, "Then you've come to the right person. I have a lot of ideas about this."
The judges exchanged glances, each seeing a glimmer of hope in the other's eyes.
"First, I think we need to analyze the Holy See's situation in the Kingdom of Clark."
One of the five judges raised his hand to interrupt, "Wait, why start here??"
Li Aili asked in surprise, "Sir Judge, shouldn't we examine our own situation before analyzing the enemy?"
"Only by thoroughly analyzing our own situation can we understand what interests are involved, and what enemies these interests will bring us."
Judge: "..."
Okay, that seems to make sense.
Li Aili used the eloquence of a minotaur selling medicine to persuade the five judges to talk about everything from the history of the Kingdom of Clark to the 'ups and downs' of the Holy Light Court over the past thousand years.
For three hours, the judge's 'scales of honesty' seemed to have a seizure, frantically 'kowtowing' towards the 'angel'.
So much so that the judge's eyes swung back and forth between the Duchess's passionate speech and the 'twitching' scales.
By the time Li Aili finally got to the point, the two judges were already clutching their aching necks in pain.
The first time they had ever interrogated someone, when they came to the topic of cervical spondylosis, their faces were filled with doubt about life.
Li Aili cleared her throat. "Excuse me, could I have a glass of water?"
One of the judges immediately stood up and, under the angry glare of his colleagues, stretched his limbs thoroughly.
All that could be heard was the cracking sound of his old back. Then, supporting his back with both hands, he staggered over to pour Li Aili a glass of water.
Li Aili felt sorry for this person and stood up, saying, "I'll do it myself."
"Don't move! Madam, please let me do it!"
"My legs are numb from sitting so long!" A sour bubble appeared above the man's head.
Li Aili sat down calmly, then took the water glass from the unsteady judge, took a few small sips, and said, "Great. With this water, I feel like I can talk for another five hours."
The judge, walking toward his seat, stumbled and nearly fell headfirst to the ground.
The other four colleagues then gave him a death stare.
Li Aili cleared her throat. "So I think, from the perspective of gains and losses, the Dark Holy Court has the strongest motive for this crime."
They may have the motive, but they may not necessarily take action.
The five 'honest scales' once again point towards the angels.
Wow, the art of language is profound and complex.
One of the judges quickly scribbled down Li Aili's testimony.
He was about to announce the end of this 'nightmare'.
However, Li Aili then said, "But as I just said, the Holy Court's development near the Memphis Sea has affected the Temple of the Sea God, so I think the Temple of the Sea God also has some motive to retaliate, doesn't it?"
The scales pointed sharply at the angel.
The man wrote down 'Temple of the Sea God' with trembling hands.
They thought that was the end of it.
A mere mortal has already dragged two gods into this; isn't that enough to stop her?
Li Aili showed them with her abilities what it means to "invite a god but send him away."
An hour later, the five judges stood there, each with a blank expression, before them a parchment scroll filled with the names of 'suspects'.
A one-meter-long parchment scroll was laid out horizontally, and both sides were covered with writing.
They are all gods, big and small.
From the supreme god to the subordinate god of the supreme god... from the fallen to the reborn...
The Duchess finally stopped her incessant chatter.
These days, she has been diligently memorizing the history of the mainland and the epics of the gods, and finally, she has a chance to put her skills to use!
The five people acted decisively. One person got up and opened the door, while the other four respectfully surrounded Li Aili, "helping" the still-unsatisfied Duchess to her feet and politely "chasing" her out of the room as if she were a plague.
The moment the door closed, the five of them felt a sense of relief, as if they had escaped death.
Chapter 53 has been slightly revised. I was too tired to keep my eyes open yesterday, so I only made some changes this morning.
The content remains unchanged, only slightly revised.
I'm still desperately begging for votes! Please vote! Please vote! Monthly votes! Recommendation votes!
Yesterday, the first order on the main site was 109. Sigh, I've figured it out. Collecting things is just a passing fad. From now on, I'll focus on getting votes.
